CASA of NELA is proud to say we graduated FIVE NEW ADVOCATES! 🎉❤💙

Missi Verdick, Claire Larson, Sherry Pruitt, Kirby Johnson, and Tommy Elmore were sworn in by Judge Aisha Clark and are officially Court Appointed Special Advocates!

These five individuals are going to make an incredible impact on the life of a child in foster care right here in Northeast Louisiana. In just a few hours a month, these advocates will ensure an abused or neglected child will find a safe, permanent home. What an amazing opportunity!

Thank you, advocates, for choosing to give your few volunteer hours per month to CASA of Northeast Louisiana!

You can join these community members in changing the life of a child by becoming a Court Appointed Special Advocate too! Training classes are happening all summer long - and we need you! You can become trained in two short classes and be on your way to serving a child in need. Check us out at www.casaofnela.org or email [email protected] with any questions!
